Yoruba music is the music of the Yoruba people of Nigeria, Togo, and Benin. It is perhaps best known for its extremely advanced drumming tradition, especially using the dundun hourglass . Yoruba folk music became perhaps the most prominent kind of West African music in Afro-Latin and Caribbean musical styles; it left an especially important influence on the music used in Santería practice and the music of Cuba. For a comprehensive discussion of Yoruba music, see Bode Omojola's book, Yoruba Music in the Twentieth Century (University of Rochester Press, 2012).

  • La música yoruba es el género musical tradicional del pueblo yoruba. Esta población tiene una avanzada tradición de percusión, con un uso característico de los tambores de tensión, en concreto del dundun. Estos conjuntos consisten en varios tambores de tensión de diferentes tamaños, junto con un gudugudu. El líder de un conjunto dundun es el iyalu, que utiliza el tambor “para hablar” imitando la tonalidad yoruba.​ Gran parte de la música yoruba está dedicada a los espíritus de la naturaleza y son devotos de Orishas y de la mitología yoruba.
